Below is the procedure for creating a bootable USB flash drive with Windows 11. The same process should also work with any HDD/SSD connected to your system.

Linux detected /dev/sda as the USB stick, in your case
it will most likely take a different name.
Work as root account and make sure to replace /dev/sda with your USB flash drive! Use lsblk and dmesg | tail -50 commands to locate your USB flash drive.
sudo wipefs -a /dev/sda
sudo parted /dev/sda
(parted) mklabel gpt (parted) mkpart BOOT fat32 0% 1GiB
(parted) mkpart INSTALL ntfs 1GiB 10GiB
(parted) quit
Check the drive layout now:
In my case I've used 100% instead of 10GiB when created the "INSTALL" ntfs partition - mkpart INSTALL ntfs 1GiB 100%. But you can use anything that should be larger than 6 GiB to fit the data from Windows ISO image.

I mounted it to /mnt/iso directory:
sudo mkdir /mnt/iso
sudo mount /home/<your user>/Downloads/Win11_English_x64v1.iso /mnt/iso/
sudo mkfs.vfat -n BOOT /dev/sda1
sudo mkdir /mnt/vfat
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/vfat/
sudo rsync -r --progress --exclude sources --delete-before /mnt/iso/ /mnt/vfat/
sudo mkdir /mnt/vfat/sources
sudo cp /mnt/iso/sources/boot.wim /mnt/vfat/sources/
sudo mkfs.ntfs --quick -L INSTALL /dev/sda2 sudo mkdir /mnt/ntfs
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/ntfs
sudo rsync -r --progress --delete-before /mnt/iso/ /mnt/ntfs/
sudo umount /mnt/ntfs
sudo umount /mnt/vfat
sudo umount /mnt/iso
sudo sync
sudo udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sda
